This video shows how to build a simple, unique, and very functional mount, to stow and deploy your Active Target or Livescope transducer pole easily, securely, and consistently every time in a few seconds. If you can cut a piece of aluminum and drill a few holes, it’s a fun DIY project with a very functional result. Build two bases and have it in two locations on your boat for $81 in materials (not counting the fasteners). Material links are given below.
